Origin/meaning

The arms were adopted in 1901.

The arms show a crescent moon, which is the local village sign. Its meaning is not clear, but it already appeared on the oldest known 16th century seal of the village. The colours were taken from the arms of the Lords Von Gemmingen-Hornberg, who rule dthe village from 1508-1806.
